This post is only for you if you still support the President. |
|
If you still support the President, please wear a campaign button, or any memorabilia from his presidency on August 4 to honor his birthday. The job is tough and it is a day of support. Flash your bumper stickers or T shirts, etc. Now if you hate him or have withdrawn your support, the usual day of verbal abuse and written hate post will continue.

5. "Support the President" |
|
Edited on Wed Jul-28-10 05:02 PM by Hissyspit
That is begging for clarification due to its vagueness. Is it similar to "Support the Troops?," which is open to translation and has a long history of being used as propaganda sloganeering and dialogue suppression?
That asked, Happy Birthday, Mr. President. :-)

6. I think it means you have to send him a care package and put magnetic Obama ribbons on your car |
|
I will be the first to admit that I do neither

and right now, no I do NOT support many of his actions. That said, he's still better than any Republican. Which really isn't saying much if we want to be honest with ourselves. I still have my Obama/Biden bumper sticker on my car. Will it be there in 2012? That remains to be seen.
You do realize Obama is NOT up for election in 2010 right?

11. I support and supported POTUS Obama |
|
But often his appointments and actions I find disappointing enough to where I feel deceived and am in the situation of support based upon hope rather then true change. I would rather be reality based than faith (hope) based.
I make excuses to myself such as well he is a politition and what are the alternatives (as some as so ready to quip).
Stop the wars. Spend money on the people.

13. If only we had a forum specifically for those who "still support the President" |
|
Of course, posting there wouldn't get you all the validating attention you want now, would it? :eyes:

17. I still support the president, but I am disappointed as hell. |
|
We expected more. We voted for more. We were promised more.
And what we got was DLC business as usual.

now that you mention it, I didn't get a card, call not even an e-mail (used to get lots of the latter).

21. I'll celebrate Obama's birthday, sure! |
|
For personal reasons--my birthday is July 6, which is also Bush the Lesser's birthday. 8 years of his ugly mug on the TV on MY DAY generates some serious resentment. Obama pisses me off free and clear, but only because I had higher expectations.

22. He's much easier to hold up than William Howard Taft, that's for sure. |

Oh, sorry. Fat joke. My bad.
